MY FAMILY:

My family consists of four people: my parents, my younger sister, and me. We live in an old, crumbling stone house. My father works as a porter, a physically demanding job with low and unstable income. My mother suffers from thyroid disease and hepatitis B, which result in her frequent breathing difficulties and fatigue. She constantly worries about medical expenses and sometimes must stop taking her medication to cover school fees for my sister and me. We do not have many nutritious meals, so we are smaller than our peers. My parents struggle to cover living expenses, medical costs, and school fees.

MY STUDY:

I am in grade 4, and my younger sister is in grade 1. In my free time, I often play soccer and help my mother with housework. I also help my younger sister with her homework. I enjoy going to school and making new friends. I do not know if I will be able to continue my studies in the future, so I try to study well while I still can. I do long for your help so my sister and I can have a better education.
